Title: Went to test ride the Streetfighter and picked up a new ride!!!
Post by: Itsasickness on June 18, 2009, 06:22:32 PM
Just used the Streetfighter as a teaser [laugh] [laugh], but I did just pick up a Aprillia Scarabeo 150 for free!!!! Well it was free thanks to my GAP claim on my monster.  Now the wifey has something to tool around on, but I may have to cruise around on it sometimes  ;D [thumbsup] I rode it around yesterday, its a riot!!! [moto]

They're addictive, aren't they? I find myself tooling around on Anne's Scarabeo a lot.

I'm not there yet, but that is what EVERYONE is telling me.  I will admit a convenience factor, but i'm not there yet

I'm always tempted to ride one of those in my skirt and heels... (OK, that's bad for you for a couple of reasons.)   [laugh]

Scooters are really easy to hop on and park.  U-Turns!
We've been selling quite a bit of these lately.  BART-able, 20 mile range, worth checking out if you're looking for short range simple transportation.

Just wait...  ;D

But do resist the urge to cover it in carbon fiber and billet, OK?

The Scarabeo absolutely rocks! Leo Vince makes an exhaust pipe for it and I'm really tempted. The maintenance costs for a scooter are ridiculously lower than a Ducati. ;D

Only electric scooters are allowed on BART, IIRC.
